CA Cup Oaks (CA)
Purse: $200.000
Location: Santa Anita
Distance: 1m Turf
- Laffin Iron, K. Desormeaux, Hawaiian Shirt Guy- just missed in the GIII Jessamine last October, has a satisfactory work tab since, may need a race off of the long layoff.
- Tightness, G. Stevens, EasyMoney Stables- this graded stakes placed filly was fifth by 2 lengths last out in the BC, since then has put up spectacular works, including the fastest 6f turf work for 3yo fillies on HRP.
- Head For The Stars, D. Moran, Mb Stables- the ever-present Mb Stables sends out this allowance winner who closed into a flaming pace to win a n1x last out.
- Fomalhaut, L. Saez, John Henry- this one may have been a steal for John Henry at $100.000 after performances in GI and GIII company where she failed to contest.
- Feel The Thunder, J. Talamo, Mb Stables- this one is a continuos stakes performer who was 4th by 2 lengths and seems to hold a class edge along with #2 Tightness.
- Genesis Girl, V. Espinoza, Establo Pinchon- this MSW winner just missed in an allowance at SA last out, will need to improve.
- Noble Destiny, S. Bridgmohan, Mb Stables- just missed in a GIII by 1/2 length last out, the final portion of the Mb trio in here seems to be the biggest threat to the two BC competitors.
